Shout Outs
Ready for the shout-outs! This section might feel a bit different from what we've done throughout the season, but today's the day we express gratitude to those who make this all possible. Don't worry, I won't get too sappy, but I do want to acknowledge the invaluable folks who keep the Bear Tracks train rolling.
The Team: These guys, they're the backbone of it all. Their unwavering commitment, hard work, and on-field brilliance have made compiling these stats an absolute blast. We had a ton of fun tracking their progress, and it's all thanks to these incredible athletes.
The Coaching Staff: Coach Blackston and his crew, they're the real MVPs. Always ready to lend a hand, they've been our go-to for anything we've needed. We don't take their support for granted, and we're immensely grateful for this exceptional group.
The Pressbox Crew: Often overlooked but certainly not forgotten, this crew is a hidden gem in the world of BHP, both home and away. From the Guys running the scoreboard and clock to the PA and music all the way to the radio crew. Sharing the pressbox with these fine fellas is a joy, and on most game days, we have ourselves a pretty good time. I promise I’m doing my best to keep Dad from causing a ruckus over the PA system.
My Family: The unsung heroes of our operation. You may have heard me mention it in a few posts, but my Dad and I are the dynamic duo gathering stats on Fridays, while I handle the online stuff during the week. The time we spend together, the fun we have at the games, and the texts from my Mom gently remind me that she can hear Dad yelling on the radio—those moments are priceless. And my wife, she's not just the one that holds all this together, she's my editor, my sounding board, the one who keeps me grounded when I want to predict 77-0, and so much more. I couldn't do any of this without her unwavering support.
Bear Fans: You're the wind beneath our wings! I've received countless heartwarming messages and comments from you all. Your readership, your shares, your interactions are so encouraging. I want to provide these players with something we never had when I was on the field—a place to celebrate their hard work and dedication, a place for true recognition. By engaging with our content, you allow us to reach more and more people so we can shine a spotlight on these incredible athletes. Thank you, Bear Fans, for being the driving force behind our mission.
In closing, I want to take a moment to express my gratitude to everyone who plays a role in what I do. There are so many of you who contribute, and I am genuinely thankful for each and every one. Together, we make this journey one to remember.
